Itinerary

Your tour begins with hotel or port pickup at 9am (or 30 minutes after the arrival of your cruise ship) when you’ll board an air-conditioned vehicle destined for Nine Mile, the birthplace of reggae legend Bob Marley.

On arrival at the village, you’ll visit Marley’s boyhood home, final resting place, and teenage haunts, learning little-known facts about the singer from your guide.

Then, you’ll feast on Jamaican cuisine from rustic huts selling fiery jerk chicken and rice. Sated, continue to Dunn’s River Falls — terraced waterfalls that cascade down a 1,000-foot (300-meter) drop — and embark on a moderate hike to the top.

Swim in rock pools and relax on smooth rocks before drying off and returning to your hotel.

Great experience....

Shonta_W, Dec 2024
Great experience. Definitely worth the cost. The distance to the Bob Marley museum from Ocho Rios is a bit far but the drive was worth it!

My partner and I had a great last day doing this tour. Our driver, Mr. T, made the experience amazing. Probably the best driver in Jamaica and so thoughtful, even pulled surprised us with sugar cane after the tour because we mentioned we loved it. Captain Crazy at Bob Marley’s house was hilarious and informative and the property was great. We then drove to Dunns River Falls which was so beautiful and we had a great time. Would definitely do another tour with Mr. T.

Long day of driving but worth a try. Great job Sean.

Heather_D, Mar 2023
Good visit. Our guide Sean was fantastic. The only thing holding back a 5 star rating was our local guide at 9 mile. We had a man called Captain Crazy. He was too high to give us much of a guided tour. We did hear another guide on the tour that was just after ours and he was relaying some good historical information on Bob Marley and his family history at 9 mile. We were only able to pick up on a little bit of what he was saying. We did not get that. Dunn’s River Falls is spectacular albeit very crowded.

Heather _D Thanks for sharing your experience with us, it was our pleasure, however I am sorry your guide at the Bob Marley place didn’t provide much information, but happy overall that you had a great time . We look forward to your next visit Regards Sana

Excellent guide and great sites!

Kristy_T, Mar 2023
Our guide was Shawn. He was so kind and willing to share information. He made the drive pleasant. I'd do it again. The tour at Nine Mile was disappointing due to a poor guide there. But that is not the fault of this outfit. They did a great job. I took my two teen girls and they got to see a lot of the countryside in just our few hours in port. I'd do it again! Bring motion sickness medicine. Jamaicans drive crazy!!!

Absolutely amazing!

Megan_b, Jul 2022
Our tour was amazing! Our guide, Dalton, could not have been more helpful. From the moment he picked us up, he was telling us what we could see and giving us more information on Jamaica that we would have never found out if it wasn’t for him!

Excellent day trip

I absolutely loved this tour. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Dalton, my guide, made the experience even more memorable as he enlightened me about the entire island. It was just an overall great experience.
